Why would Palace sell, I know it's the last year of his contract, but by selling him they could get relegated.

Why would zaha come to spurs as well.. to be a rotation player? Financially he wouldn't be much better off and didn't he support arsenal as well (not that this has much of a bearing on things these days).

I'd be amazed if this happens. Great player and would be a real coup for us, but can't see it from palace/wz point of view.
I honestly don't think Palace will get relegated they are far better than enough other sides even without Zaha.

Zaha is a Conte player, no question about it. Hopefully, he's matured from when he was younger.

I really hope we can sign him as he'd add another dimension to our attack.

how much would palace want to sell him ? Especially after the way he has started the season . They would be mad to sell . Surely they would want north of 50m

Around the same price as Bissouma I reckon as he only has 1 year left.

£30-£35m maybe.

Signing Zaha to let Gil go out on loan.. deal!

Signing Zaha, who is homegrown, meaning we can have a go at Bastoni as well.. deal!

Signing Zaha, who is homegrown, meaning we can have a go at Bastoni & Zaniolo if we sell Lucas as well.. deal!

Ideally we’d be signing someone a bit younger in the Luiz Dias mould for the right hand side who’s in their early/mid 20’s for succession planning, but Zaha would be an upgrade for Gil for me personally.

My only concern would be is he tactically disciplined enough to carry out Conte’s exact instructions? I’m not so sure. Perhaps this was Conte’s original concerns!?

SO he doesn't want Zaha but Traore is back on the list?

Honestly signing Traore would just taint this window so badly for me. I can't even understand why the guy is even on the list. He's garbage.

No we don't want a winger with end product, we want a oiled up one with no end product.
Garbage player that ran us ragged twice under Mourinho, to the point where senior players recommended we sign him.

Run ragged haha. His end product is garbage. Failed at Barca, on the Wolves bench, hardly a queue of clubs trying to sign him. Wonder why.

30m would be a absolute bargain . The way prices are going up for bang average players .

would he be happy to come here ? Basically plays similar role to Richarlison and son . Certainly wouldn’t be main man

Would love Zaha but is there not a massive gamble buying a 30 year old winger that realies so much on quickness and speed? We already have Son and Lucas that are turing 30 this year and at some point in the next years their legs will be gone...

I just read that first part wondering what tune you'd used for your Zaha song... :LOL:
